• Fish oil replacement in finfish nutrition (2009, background): “However, AA-derived eicosanoids have a higher activity compared with EPA-derived eicosanoids; as such, modification of the cell EPA to AA ratio will be responsible for modified physiological responses resulting from diverse activities of the two different eicosanoid series (Bell et al. 1997; Sargent”
